After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 235

Although Lingyun Group is only a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, it is now definitely a major force.

Because he had taken down White Dog and Chief Kong, and even escaped death from the police station.

They still had Li Qitian and Black Wolf in their hands.

In the eyes of the upper class in Nanzhou, they were considered to be a considerable force.

Black Wolf reacted dramatically, laughing, "President Lin, if you're not a big shot or a powerful figure, then no one in Nanzhou would dare to call themselves a big shot or a powerful figure."

"Now, when people mention your name, everyone gives you a thumbs up."

Lin Ling squinted and frowned, saying, "Brother Black Wolf, don't you understand what I mean?"

"After the White Dog's downfall, why didn't the major powers in Nanzhou hurry up and divide up the underground forces?"

"Is it that they don't want to eat it? Or do they look down on it?"

"Although the underground forces market isn't huge, it's still tempting enough."

Black Wolf paused for a moment, his brows furrowing tightly, as if he understood what Lin Ling meant: "You mean to say that those big shots and powerful forces don't dare to touch the underground forces' pie?"

"Afraid of being implicated like Director Kong?"

“That’s right.” Lin Ling sighed. “Speaking of which, this is one of the reasons why I almost got locked up in jail this time.”

"It's because I'm associated with you that I've been convicted of such a serious crime."

"So those big shots and powerful figures in the Southern Continent are very smart. They would rather not have this piece of the pie than be implicated."

Black Wolf was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with disbelief.

You think you can just abandon the country we fought so hard to build?

Is Lin Ling trying to distance himself from the Black Wolf Gang, fearing he might be implicated?

A hush fell over the scene.

Black Wolf gritted his teeth and said, "President Lin, our brothers are loyal to you. You can't just abandon them like that."

"In everyone's eyes, I, Black Wolf, and you are the backbone; we can't do without either of us."

"Besides, you've given us so much, how dare we sever ties with you?"

"President Lin, I, Black Wolf, am not an ingrate."

"Just tell us what you want us to do. We don't have to be involved in the underworld."

Even though he has now broken away from Lin Ling and is working independently, he can still become the leader of the underground forces in Nanzhou.

But he wasn't ungrateful; Lin Ling helped him when he was at his lowest point.

He couldn't abandon Lin Ling when he became successful.

This is the romance between men.

Lin Ling nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "You are my brother, and I, Lin Ling, will never abandon any of my brothers."

"However... the underground forces absolutely cannot continue. Sell off all the territories under your control, leave no one alive."

"What?!" Black Wolf exclaimed in shock, "Not a single one left?"

"These are all gold mines, treasures that can continuously generate money."

"Mr. Lin, please think it through. Otherwise, we can stop doing those borderline shady things and just do legitimate, green things."

In his view, Lin Ling was in a high position and did not understand the plight of his brothers below.

The brothers below only eat, drink, gamble, and play with women; without these three things, they'd be rotten.

Without these businesses, where would the brothers get the money to eat, drink, gamble, and play with women?

Lin Ling went too far in this matter.

No matter what, we can't just take a one-size-fits-all approach, can we?

Lin Ling squinted, recalling memories of her past life.

As the economy of Nanzhou becomes more and more developed, it has also become a model city for open economy.

Next year, the bigwigs above will launch a major crackdown on the underground forces in Nanzhou.

No matter if it's an underground force, it can't escape the ruthless measures taken by those in power.

Countless people have been imprisoned.

Since then, the environment in Nanzhou has become much cleaner.

The remaining underground forces also hurriedly transformed themselves.

He spoke calmly, "Brother Black Wolf, do you believe me?"

"I believe you, of course I believe you," Black Wolf replied without hesitation.

Lin Ling said slowly, "Next year, the higher-ups will launch a major crackdown on the underground forces in Nanzhou."

"If you continue down this path, you and your brothers will all end up in jail."

"This squatting position may last for your entire lives."

"It's for your own good that you all have to give up."

"If even the slightest clue is left, someone will seize the opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop."
